[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's an urban legend that burglars "case the joint" first. [/quote] This. I’ve been a prosecutor for a decade. Virtually every residential burglary I’ve worked on has been a crime of opportunity. Burglars aren’t looking to target a specific victim. They’re looking for homes that are unlocked, under construction, or visibly unoccupied for long periods of time. I worry about a lot of things, but a burglary isn’t one of them.[/quote] Or it seems very targeted. The thieves break in and go right for the safe knowing exactly where it is. They either know the victims or have been in the house before, totally not random.[/quote] This. When you hear about "violent home invasion," typically the victims were targeted for a specific reason and are often known by the attacker. Most burglaries are crimes of opportunity in an empty home.[/quote]
